Eat Sleep Play

EatSleepPlay began as a health initiative with a curriculum adopted by the National Institute of Health in response to early childhood obesity. The immersive exhibit introduced the latest research in a color coded, vibrant environment. Every experience was playful in a fully educational space. Five distinct yet blended spaces introduced the importance of the brains function over the health of the body. The initiative spawned an interactive a website, email campaign, family handouts, marketing materials, and a myriad of tools for educators. The project was then adapted for installation in 32 Head Start Centers and Family Shelters throughout New York City.
